Anything from Generation 1 all the way to the soon to be released, the never to be released or the hope to be released is fair game! Want to show off your stuff?

Site sponsor Kapow Toys has revealed the premium packaging for the Transformers Asia Exclusive G1 Sixshot Reissue. The figure will also feature metallic paint and chromed guns. Check out the image below.

I'm hoping Hasbro decides to release it in the US as a Commemorative Reissue, maybe a TRU exclusive, like the Insecticons, Perceptor, and Soundwave, with the standard Comm/Reissue packaging, at a lower price point.

Nice. I really dig the bookman style box and added details. Alas this fig is way too expensive and will never make it on to my shelf (glances admiringly at D98 Sixshot reissue currently looking badass on shelf).

Motto:""So you see evil will always triumph over good, because good is dumb!""

Weapon: Dual-Sonic Disrupter Gun

It is cool looking but I too will pass. I'm totally content with my Takara re-issue from years ago. What I do think IMO is items like this and SDCC Bruticus wouldn't cost so much if not for these really fancy packaging...'nuff said!

The crapper about it for people that find this stuff to be must have...I think this isn't going to do very well due to the price. So HasTak will probably look at it as a failure due to non-interest rather than the actual problem which is the rip-off they're trying to get away with.

I know right? kind of a stupid idea to package these guys in their tallest modes rather than their more compact ones, I mean with Bruticus I guess it's understandable since it's five dudes, and packaging them in their alt modes wouldn't make much of a difference, but with Sixshot having him in car mode or folding his wing things would have made the box a bit more... y'know, better and compactier.

Woah, bummer.

Bigger Box = Bigger Price

Does this look great? YesDo I want a Sixshot? YesAm I going to pay nearly $100 for a box? No

I'm sure the bigwig collectors are all over this. I'll wait the extra 4 years for a 'tru exclusive' or whatever they do.

And yea, a nice 3rd party Hexatron or whatever it was, would be better at that price. Toy collecting is getting a little too big for its britches in this economy. I live in the US, we're on our way to being a poor country. (thats all Im gonna say about that)
